After thinking it through, Wang Mou was suddenly enlightened. The way he looked at Liu Bei also had a little more approval and admiration. This made Liu Bei extremely happy!
"Sir must be very concerned about the current situation and has specially come to answer your doubts.”
"Then I'll have to trouble you!"
"A major incident did happen last night. One of the city walls at the southern gate collapsed…"
Wang Mou's eyes widened."What? Did the Cao army take the opportunity to attack?"”
Liu Bei shook his head."This is also the reason why I'm puzzled. Logically speaking, the Cao army should have known about such a huge commotion, but there has been no movement so far.”
Wang Mou frowned."What are Cao Jun up to?”
"General Xu has already brought people to repair it and sent an army to guard it.”
Wang Mou nodded."Wen Xiang responded appropriately. If the Cao army attacks, that damaged area will be the main point. As long as the catapults bombard it repeatedly, not only will the repaired area be blown apart, the opening will also continue to grow. In the end, it is possible that the entire city wall will collapse!”
"This is indeed the most worrying problem, but the actions of the Cao army are really puzzling. Could it be that they feel that it is inconvenient to move at night and want to wait until dawn to attack with all their strength?”
"That's also possible!"
Just as the two of them were guessing, a fast horse rushed over. The person on the horse was Zhang Zhao.
"Why is Mister Zi Bu here?"
Zhang Zhao bowed to Wang Mou."The situation is strange. I've come to ask Young Master to make a decision!”
"Sir, please speak!"
"The South Gate Cao Army has retreated!"
"What?"
Whether it was Wang Mou or Liu Bei and his brothers, they were all in disbelief. The Cao army had actually retreated at this time, giving up this heaven-sent opportunity for nothing?
"Sir, please speak more clearly!"
Zhang Zhao looked confused." After dawn, we found that Cao Cao's camp had disappeared. To be cautious, we sent people to search, but we couldn't find any traces of them. It was only when we reached the north gate that we found Cao Ren's flag in Cao Cao's camp.”
"Young Master, do you think Cao Ren retreated last night and didn't notice the collapse of the city wall?”
Liu Bei agreed with Zhang Zhao's point of view.
"That's possible. Cao Cao might be trying to gather all his forces to attack one gate, but this is a good thing for us!”
Wang Mou shook his head."No, I'm willing to believe that this is Cao Cao's scheme!”
"Where did the plan come from?"
"It's a diversion plan! They're attacking the north gate with full force, so that we can divert the troops from the south gate. Then, they'll attack the south gate by surprise, achieving the goal of breaking the city in one fell swoop!”
The few of them were horrified. It was very possible!
"Young Master, what should we do now? Please make a decision!"
At this moment, Taishi Ci sent someone to report," Cao Cao has gathered all his troops and is preparing to attack the city!”
Wang Mou no longer hesitated and said to Zhang Zhao,"The south gate guards cannot be mobilized. Teacher, go back and tell Wen Xiang to tighten the defense and not relax.”
"Yes!"
Zhang Zhao didn't stop, turning around and running away.
Wang Mou then looked at Liu Bei."I'm not in good health and can't personally command the troops. The north gate is in great danger. Please lend me a hand."”
"Teacher, rest assured and recuperate. With the two brothers around, we will definitely not let Peng City fall!”
Guan Yu cupped his hands and said," Don't worry, sir. I'm here. I'll kill every enemy that comes!"”
"Me too!"
"I've long heard that the two generals have the courage to fight against ten thousand men. I'll be waiting for your good news!”
The two of them looked happy and proud. It seemed that even Sir had heard of our great names!
After the three tsundere brothers left, Wang Mou said to Dian Wei,"Er 'Lai, you go help too!"
Unexpectedly, Dian Wei shook his head repeatedly." No, I want to stay here and protect Young Master!”
Wang Mou didn't know whether to laugh or cry." There's no one in this city who would dare to plot against me? You protecting Peng City is the greatest protection for me!”
Dian Wei thought about it and agreed. He could only stand up awkwardly." Then, Young Master, you should rest well. I'll come back to accompany you after I defeat the Cao army!”
"Okay, go!"
After everyone left, Wang Mou finally closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
He was just awake, but it did not mean that he was cured. Even his fever had not completely subsided. He had no choice but to take charge of the situation just now.
"You're so full of yourself," Hua Tuo scolded angrily."How can you recover faster like this?" What a troublesome fellow. He had to stay away from such people in the future.”
When the three brothers arrived at the top of the city wall, they saw that the ground was littered with rubble, proving that Cao Cao's catapults had just bombarded the city.
"Ziyi, how is the situation?"
"Envoy, you're here!"
Taishi Ci shook his head and said," Cao Cao has mobilized all his troops. I'm afraid it will be a tough battle. Moreover, Young Master is not around. The morale of the garrison is not high. The situation is not looking good!"”
Liu Bei looked at the flourishing Cao army, then at the slightly depressed defenders.
This would not do, so he raised his arms and shouted," Soldiers, cheer up. Your young master has guarded Peng City for so long. Now is the time for you to protect him. You don't want him to drag his sick body over to personally work, right? Now is the time for you to repay him. Repulse the Cao army and absolutely cannot let them disturb Young Master's recuperation!”
"Envoy Liu is right, we can't disappoint Young Master!”
"We can't let Young Master work any harder. We have to protect him!”
"Repulse the Cao army!"
"Repulse the Cao army!"
The defenders had a new look on their faces. They had a strong fighting spirit and a fierce look on their faces!
Taishi Ci gave Liu Bei a thumbs up." You have a way!"”
Liu Bei shook his head."I was just trying to stimulate the faith in their hearts. The most amazing one is still Mister Wang. Only he can make Peng Cheng's fighting spirit rise!”
"Cao Cao's army is here, prepare for battle!”
